Ramadan 1448
Ramadan 2027 in Sweden
The expected start date, who decides it, and first-day sahur and iftar times across 1 city.
How Sweden decides
Sweden follows a pre-calculated lunar calendar, so the start date is set by astronomical calculation rather than a moon sighting.
The Islamic Association of Sweden set Ramadan 1446 (2025) at 1 March using astronomical calculation of global moon visibility rather than local sighting alone. Its Ramadan 1447 (2026) date could not be confirmed from available sources.
